Does anyone have any creative suggestions as to how to name a girl after an Ian?
Thanks

Hmmmm.... Ianna? Eye-Anna?

EDIT*
or.... Sian. Pronounced SHARN.
Sianna? Like Sienna but See-Anna?

Hmmm....

Lian, Brianne, Tianna, Vivian

Vivian
Eliana
Gianna
Lianna

Kian - usually a boy name but I think can work for a girl!

I think pretty much any name with Ian in it would be a nice tribute!

 

[Fallacy]

Vivian
Eliana
Liana (my middle name lol)
Lillian
Gianna (love this)
Adriana
Jillian
Siobhian


Pretty good options imo!

Ian is Gaelic meaning 'god is gracious' I think there would be a female name of that origin with the same meaning

Ani? It's an anagram of Ian.

Ooh, some good ideas, thank you! Open to more suggestions - nothing is grabbing me yet. X

Pretty much anything that rhymes you can make IAN

Jillian (my fav listed)
Julian/Juliana
Leilani
Lillian/Lilyana
Liana/Leonna/Lianna
Illiana

Rhian -(ree-un)
Leian - (lee-un)
Vivian
Lilian
Dorian
Sharmian
Aerian - varient or arianna
Corian
Iona - girl varient of Ian
Eden - just because it sounds similar to Ian

I like a pp suggestion of brianne

Ianne is the famine version of Ian meaning god is gracious x

Ianthe

Personally of all the suggestions, I like Vivian the best! It's old-fashioned, and all those classic names have made a big comeback in the past few years. But it's also got sass and the "ian" sound is very prominent.
